"Whether sipping a cocktail at the Deco-inspired bar or watching the sunset from your private balcony 40 stories up, you’ll feel the city as a constant presence with a stay at this Ritz. The property occupies 13 floors of a 59-story tower that rises where the Paseo de la Reforma, Mexico City’s grandest boulevard, meets the Bosque de Chapultepec, the city center’s green lung. The rooms themselves are spacious and tranquil, with marble-clad bathrooms and a subdued color palette of dusty blues and grays that allows the cityscape to play protagonist. Ninety percent of the rooms have private balconies offering panoramic views. The hotel’s on-site restaurant, Samos, serves a solid breakfast and, for lunch and dinner, unfussy Mediterranean food with a focus on local produce." - Susannah Rigg, Michaela Trimble
